Need to keep hob ignition pressed - Bosch 30 in. NGP 732 / 736 Gas Cooktop

Some gas appliances have a thermal couple. it could be dirty at its base connection. If possible clean that area with alcohol

always unplug electricity before attempting to repair on any electrical appliance .

check the ignition button or its wiring, the button may be broken and 'on' all the time, or the wires underneath broken off and shorted together.

Hi,
Here is a tip that I wrote that will help figure out why the burner spark keeps on clicking...

the flame will not stay alight on my 5 ring hob when i release the sparker???

There is a problem with the board. It has malfunctioned onto an ignition mode. By switching it off, it shows the capacitor is holding chage untill flat.(Hence the continual sparking) Replace it.

Will most probably be a problem with your ignition box. If you want to test this try taking off the hob by undoing the screws under the burners, be very careful with these however as it is very easy to strip the thread on them, once you have the hob off try unplugging the ignitor that keeps sparking and swapping where its plugged into the ignition box with another ignitor. These ignitor can be plugged into any plug in the box so no worries there. If the ignitor keeps sparkings in another hole its the ignitor. If the new ignitor sparks its the ignition box. It will most probably be the ignition box. Is a common fault

use mactches for ur gas burner if the ignition not really work.put all gas in off position b4 cleaning by using a vacium in the place of the control knob,turn off the power b4 try to clean,tnx

try easing each knob upwards a bit.

Hi
Glad to Help you!!
Take the knob off, them remove the cover that housed the switches, OK, Now, Look at the switch that is continiusly clicking and it will have two wires goin onto it, remove these wires and just lift the sending unit, and inspect it for water, grease etc ect....clean and dry and put back on and try again it should work, if it does not work, then just get a replacement one, they are not expensive, I just replaced two on my Jenn-Air myself and it cost me $25.00.
Hope this will help!!

You press the "on" which is on the left. Press the picture of hob you require and press the up and down for temperature. Then put your pan on the hob and it will work. If you need to adjust the temp you need to remove the pan.
